2016 Chevrolet Colorado

The midsize Chevrolet Colorado made an auspicious debut in 2015, when the all-new pickup became the fastest-selling truck in the industry.

With the most horsepower and best highway efficiency in the segment, as well as the highest available trailering rating - 7,000 pounds (V-6 2WD) - and higher payload rating - 1,590 pounds (V-6 2WD), it's easy to understand Colorado's appeal.

For 2016, Colorado returns with the same award-winning combination of refinement, maneuverability and efficiency, while continuing to offer innovative features such as Chevy MyLink with an optional 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, Lane Departure Warning, and Forward Collision Alert. These complement true truck elements such as the available G80 locking rear axle and a highly flexible bed with Chevy's available GearOn system.

The new phone integration technology of Colorado's MyLink system displays content from Apple iPhone 5 or later models on the multicolor screen through the Apple CarPlay feature. Supported apps for the system include phone, messages, maps, music and compatible third-party apps.

The 2016 Chevrolet Colorado is available in four-door extended- or crew-cab models, with a choice of a four-cylinder or a V-6 engine. Models and trim levels include Work Truck (WT), LT and Z71. The off-road-inspired Z71 features a gunmetal grille surround differentiating from the standard chrome on the other models. Projector headlamps and 17-inch aluminum wheels with all-terrain tires and an automatic locking rear differential complete the package.
